.SH NAME
profile \- Security profile file syntax, and information about building new application profiles.

.SH SYNOPSIS

Using a specific profile:
.PP
.RS
.TP
\fBfirejail \-\-profile=filename.profile
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail --appimage --profile=/etc/firejail/kdenlive.profile kdenlive.appimage
.br

.br
.TP
\fBfirejail \-\-profile=profile_name
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail --appimage --profile=kdenlive kdenlive.appimage
.br

.RE
.PP



Building a profile manually:
.PP
.RS
Start with the template in /usr/share/doc/firejail/profile.template and modify it in a text editor.
To integrate the program in your desktop environment copy the profile file in ~/.config/firejail
directory and run "sudo firecfg".
.RE
.PP

Aliases and redirections:
.PP
.RS
In some cases the same profile can be used for several applications.
One such example is LibreOffice.
Build a regular profile for the main application, and for the rest use
/usr/share/doc/firejail/redirect_alias-profile.template.
.RE
.PP

Running the profile builder:
.PP
.RS
.TP
\fBfirejail \-\-build=appname.profile appname
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail --build=blobby.profile /usr/bin/blobby
.br

.br
Run the program in "firejail \-\-build" and try to exercise as many program features as possible.
The profile is extracted and saved in the current directory. Open it in a text editor and add or remove
sandboxing options as necessary. Test again after modifying the profile. To integrate the program
in your desktop environment copy the profile file in ~/.config/firejail directory and run "sudo firecfg".

.SH DESCRIPTION
Several command line options can be passed to the program using
profile files. Firejail chooses the profile file as follows:

\fB1.\fR If a profile file is provided by the user with \-\-profile option, the profile file is loaded. If a profile name is given, it is searched for first in the ~/.config/firejail directory and if not found then in /etc/firejail directory. Profile names do not include the .profile suffix.
Example:
.PP
.RS
$ firejail --profile=/home/netblue/icecat.profile /usr/bin/icecat
.br
Reading profile /home/netblue/icecat.profile
.br
[...]
.RE

.PP
.RS
$ firejail --profile=icecat /usr/bin/icecat-wrapper.sh
.br
Reading profile /etc/firejail/icecat.profile
.br
[...]
.RE

\fB2.\fR If a profile file with the same name as the application is present in ~/.config/firejail directory or
in /etc/firejail, the profile is loaded. ~/.config/firejail takes precedence over /etc/firejail. Example:
.PP
.RS
$ firejail /usr/bin/icecat
.br
Command name #icecat#
.br
Found icecat profile in /home/netblue/.config/firejail directory
.br
Reading profile /home/netblue/.config/firejail/icecat.profile
.br
[...]
.RE

\fB3.\fR Use a default.profile file if the sandbox
is started by a regular user, or a server.profile file if the sandbox
is started by root. Firejail looks for these files in ~/.config/firejail directory, followed by /etc/firejail directory.
To disable default profile loading, use --noprofile command option. Example:
.PP
.RS
$ firejail
.br
Reading profile /etc/firejail/default.profile
.br
Parent pid 8553, child pid 8554
.br
Child process initialized
.br
[...]
.br

.br
$ firejail \-\-noprofile
.br
Parent pid 8553, child pid 8554
.br
Child process initialized
.br
[...]
.RE

.SH Templates
In /usr/share/doc/firejail there are two templates to write new profiles.
.RS
profile.template - for regular profiles
.br
redirect_alias-profile.template - for aliasing/redirecting profiles
.RE


.SH Scripting
Scripting commands:

.TP
\fBFile and directory names
File and directory names containing spaces are supported. The space character ' ' should not be escaped.

Example: "blacklist ~/My Virtual Machines"

.TP
\fB# this is a comment
Example:

# disable networking
.br
net none # this command creates an empty network namespace

.TP
\fB?CONDITIONAL: profile line
Conditionally add profile line.

Example: "?HAS_APPIMAGE: whitelist ${HOME}/special/appimage/dir"

This example will load the whitelist profile line only if the \-\-appimage option has been specified on the command line.

Currently the only conditionals supported this way are HAS_APPIMAGE, HAS_NET, HAS_NODBUS, HAS_NOSOUND, HAS_PRIVATE and HAS_X11. The conditionals ALLOW_TRAY, BROWSER_DISABLE_U2F and BROWSER_ALLOW_DRM
can be enabled or disabled globally in Firejail's configuration file.

The profile line may be any profile line that you would normally use in a profile \fBexcept\fR for "quiet" and "include" lines.

Note: When using one or more conditionals and \fB--profile\fR, it is
recommended that the relevant option(s) (such as \fB--appimage\fR) be specified
before \fB--profile\fR, so that their respective conditional(s) (such as
\fB?HAS_APPIMAGE\fR) inside of the profile evaluate to true.

.TP
\fBinclude other.profile
Include other.profile file.

Example: "include /etc/firejail/disable-common.inc"

The file name can be prefixed with a macro such as ${HOME} or ${CFG}.
${HOME} is expanded as user home directory, and ${CFG} is expanded as
Firejail system configuration directory - in most cases /etc/firejail or
/usr/local/etc/firejail.

Example: "include ${HOME}/myprofiles/profile1" will load "~/myprofiles/profile1" file.

Example: "include ${CFG}/firefox.profile" will load "/etc/firejail/firefox.profile" file.

The file name may also be just the name without the leading directory components.  In this case, first the user config directory (${HOME}/.config/firejail) is searched for the file name and if not found then the system configuration directory is search for the file name.  Note: Unlike the \-\-profile option which takes a profile name without the '.profile' suffix, include must be given the full file name.

Example: "include firefox.profile" will load "${HOME}/.config/firejail/firefox.profile" file and if it does not exist "${CFG}/firefox.profile" will be loaded.

System configuration files in ${CFG} are overwritten during software installation.
Persistent configuration at system level is handled in ".local" files. For every
profile file in ${CFG} directory, the user can create a corresponding .local file
storing modifications to the persistent configuration. Persistent .local files
are included at the start of regular profile files.

.TP
\fBnoblacklist file_name
If the file name matches file_name, the file will not be blacklisted in any blacklist commands that follow.

Example: "noblacklist ${HOME}/.mozilla"

.TP
\fBnowhitelist file_name
If the file name matches file_name, the file will not be whitelisted in any whitelist commands that follow.

Example: "nowhitelist ~/.config"

.TP
\fBignore
Ignore command.

Example: "ignore seccomp"
#ifdef HAVE_NETWORK
.br
Example: "ignore net eth0"
#endif
.TP
\fBquiet
Disable Firejail's output. This should be the first uncommented command in the profile file.

Example: "quiet"
.TP
\fBwarn message
Print a warning message to stderr.
Everything after the command is printed in a warning message as is (that is,
without macro expansion).

Example: "warn This file is deprecated; use foo instead."

.SH Filesystem
These profile entries define a chroot filesystem built on top of the existing
host filesystem. Each line describes a file/directory that is inaccessible
(\fBblacklist\fR), a read-only file or directory (\fBread-only\fR),
a tmpfs mounted on top of an existing directory (\fBtmpfs\fR),
or mount-bind a directory or file on top of another directory or file (\fBbind\fR).
Use \fBprivate\fR to set private mode.  File globbing is supported, and PATH and
HOME directories are searched, see the \fBfirejail\fR(1) \fBFILE GLOBBING\fR section
for more details.
Examples:
.TP
\fBblacklist file_or_directory
Blacklist directory or file. This makes a file or directory
completely inaccessible. All other files and directories are unaffected.
The blacklisted file or directory is still visible on the filesystem,
even if it's inaccessible.
.br

.br
Symbolic link handling: Blacklisting a path that is a symbolic link will also
blacklist the path that it points to.
For example, if ~/foo is blacklisted and it points to /bar, then /bar will also
be blacklisted.
.br

.br
Examples:
.br

.br
blacklist /usr/bin
.br
blacklist /usr/bin/gcc*
.br
blacklist ${PATH}/ifconfig
.br
blacklist ${HOME}/.ssh

.TP
\fBblacklist-nolog file_or_directory
When --tracelog flag is set, blacklisting generates syslog messages if the sandbox tries to access the file or directory.
blacklist-nolog command disables syslog messages for this particular file or directory. Examples:
.br

.br
blacklist-nolog /usr/bin
.br
blacklist-nolog /usr/bin/gcc*

.TP
\fBbind directory1,directory2
Mount-bind directory1 on top of directory2. This option is only available when running as root.
.TP
\fBbind file1,file2
Mount-bind file1 on top of file2. This option is only available when running as root.
.TP
\fBdisable-mnt
Disable /mnt, /media, /run/mount and /run/media access.
.TP
\fBkeep-config-pulse
Disable automatic ~/.config/pulse init, for complex setups such as remote
pulse servers or non-standard socket paths.
.TP
\fBkeep-dev-ntsync
Allow access to the /dev/ntsync character device (even with \fBprivate-dev\fR),
which is blocked by default.
This device is mostly intended to increase performance and compatibility when
running certain programs through Wine.
.TP
\fBkeep-dev-shm
/dev/shm directory is untouched (even with private-dev).
.TP
\fBkeep-dev-tpm
Allow access to Trusted Cryptography Module (TCM) and Trusted Platform Module
(TPM) devices (even with \fBprivate-dev\fR), which are blocked by default.
.TP
\fBkeep-shell-rc
Do not copy shell rc files (such as ~/.bashrc and ~/.zshrc) from /etc/skel.
.TP
\fBkeep-var-tmp
/var/tmp directory is untouched.
.TP
\fBmkdir directory
Create a directory in user home, under /tmp, or under /run/user/<UID> before the sandbox is started.
The directory is created if it doesn't already exist.
.br

.br
Use this command for whitelisted directories you need to preserve
when the sandbox is closed. Without it, the application will create the directory, and the directory
will be deleted when the sandbox is closed. Subdirectories are recursively created. Example from
firefox profile:
.br

.br
mkdir ~/.mozilla
.br
whitelist ~/.mozilla
.br
mkdir ~/.cache/mozilla/firefox
.br
whitelist ~/.cache/mozilla/firefox
.br

.br
For files in /run/user/<PID> use ${RUNUSER} macro:
.br

.br
mkdir ${RUNUSER}/firejail-testing
.TP
\fBmkfile file
Similar to mkdir, this command creates an empty file in user home, or /tmp, or under /run/user/<UID>
before the sandbox is started. The file is created if it doesn't already exist.
.TP
\fBnoexec file_or_directory
Remount the file or the directory noexec, nodev and nosuid.
#ifdef HAVE_OVERLAYFS
.TP
\fBoverlay
Mount a filesystem overlay on top of the current filesystem.
The overlay is stored in $HOME/.firejail/<PID> directory.
.TP
\fBoverlay-named name
Mount a filesystem overlay on top of the current filesystem.
The overlay is stored in $HOME/.firejail/name directory.
.TP
\fBoverlay-tmpfs
Mount a filesystem overlay on top of the current filesystem.
All filesystem modifications are discarded when the sandbox is closed.
#endif
.TP
\fBprivate
Mount new /root and /home/user directories in temporary
filesystems. All modifications are discarded when the sandbox is
closed.
.TP
\fBprivate directory
Use directory as user home.
--private and --private=directory cannot be used together.
.br

.br
Bug: Even with this enabled, some firejail commands (such as \fBmkdir\fR,
\fBmkfile\fR and \fBprivate-cache\fR) will still operate on the original home
directory.
Workaround: Disable the incompatible commands, such as by using "ignore mkdir"
and "ignore mkfile".

.UR https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/903
#903
.UE .
.TP
\fBprivate-bin file,file
Build a new /bin in a temporary filesystem, and copy the programs in the list.
The files in the list must be expressed as relative to the /bin,
/sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, or /usr/local/bin directories.
The same directory is also bind-mounted over /sbin, /usr/bin and /usr/sbin.
Multiple private-bin commands are allowed and they accumulate.
.TP
\fBprivate-cache
Mount an empty temporary filesystem on top of the .cache directory in user home. All
modifications are discarded when the sandbox is closed.
.TP
\fBprivate-cwd
Set working directory inside jail to the home directory, and failing that, the root directory.
.TP
\fBprivate-cwd directory
Set working directory inside the jail. Full directory path is required. Symbolic links are not allowed.
.TP
\fBprivate-dev
Create a new /dev directory.
Only disc, dri, dvb, full, hidraw, log, null, ptmx, pts, random, shm, snd, tty,
urandom, usb, video and zero devices are available.
Use the options no3d, nodvd, nosound, notv, nou2f and novideo for additional
restrictions.
.TP
\fBprivate-etc file,directory
Build a new /etc in a temporary
filesystem, and copy the files and directories in the list.
The files and directories in the list must be expressed as relative to
the /etc directory, and must not contain the / character
(e.g., /etc/foo must be expressed as foo, but /etc/foo/bar --
expressed as foo/bar -- is disallowed).
All modifications are discarded when the sandbox is closed.
Multiple private-etc commands are allowed and they accumulate.
#ifdef HAVE_PRIVATE_HOME
.TP
\fBprivate-home file,directory
Build a new user home in a temporary
filesystem, and copy the files and directories in the list in the
new home.
The files and directories in the list must be expressed as relative to
the current user's home directory.
All modifications are discarded when the sandbox is
closed.
#endif
#ifdef HAVE_PRIVATE_LIB
.TP
\fBprivate-lib file,directory
Build a new /lib directory and bring in the libraries required by the application to run.
The files and directories in the list must be expressed as relative to
the /lib directory.
This feature is still under development, see \fBman 1 firejail\fR for some examples.
#endif
.TP
\fBprivate-opt file,directory
Build a new /opt in a temporary
filesystem, and copy the files and directories in the list.
The files and directories in the list must be expressed as relative to
the /opt directory, and must not contain the / character
(e.g., /opt/foo must be expressed as foo, but /opt/foo/bar --
expressed as foo/bar -- is disallowed).
All modifications are discarded when the sandbox is closed.
.TP
\fBprivate-srv file,directory
Build a new /srv in a temporary
filesystem, and copy the files and directories in the list.
The files and directories in the list must be expressed as relative to
the /srv directory, and must not contain the / character
(e.g., /srv/foo must be expressed as foo, but /srv/foo/bar --
expressed as foo/bar -- is disallowed).
All modifications are discarded when the sandbox is closed.
.TP
\fBprivate-tmp
Mount an empty temporary filesystem on top of /tmp directory whitelisting /tmp/.X11-unix.
.TP
\fBread-only file_or_directory
Make directory or file read-only.
.TP
\fBread-write file_or_directory
Make directory or file read-write.
.TP
\fBtmpfs directory
Mount an empty tmpfs filesystem on top of directory. Directories outside user home or not owned by the user are not allowed. Sandboxes running as root are exempt from these restrictions.
.TP
\fBtracelog
Blacklist violations logged to syslog.
.TP
\fBwhitelist file_or_directory
Whitelist directory or file. A temporary file system is mounted on the top directory.
In the context of firejail, top directory means, if the whitelisted file's path is
for example /etc/somedir/somefile, then the top directory would be /etc.
All other top directories like /opt, /usr and so on, haven't changed, so all files there
are still accessible, unless a file or directory inside them is also whitelisted.
This is why sometimes it's beneficial to use blacklist in combination with whitelist,
if used for different top directories.
.br

.br
The whitelisted files are mount-binded inside. Modifications to whitelisted files are
persistent, everything else in the same top directory is discarded when the sandbox is closed.
.br

.br
The top directory can be most directories in /, but there are some special cases.
The /proc and /sys top directories aren't allowed, but /sys/module is allowed.
Also /run/user/$UID, $HOME and all directories in /usr are treated as a top directory.
.br

.br
Symbolic link handling: Whitelisting a path that is a symbolic link will also
whitelist the path that it points to.
For example, if ~/foo is whitelisted and it points to ~/bar, then ~/bar will
also be whitelisted.
.br
Restrictions: With the exception of the user home directory, both the link and
the real file should be in the same top directory.
For symbolic links in the user home directory, both the link and the real file
should be owned by the user.

.TP
\fBwhitelist-ro file_or_directory
Equivalent to "whitelist file_or_directory" followed by "read-only file_or_directory"

.TP
\fBwritable-etc
Mount /etc directory read-write.

.TP
\fBwritable-var
Mount /var directory read-write.
.TP
\fBwritable-var-log
Use the real /var/log directory, not a clone. By default, a tmpfs is mounted on top of /var/log
directory, and a skeleton filesystem is created based on the original /var/log.

.SH Security filters
The following security filters are currently implemented:

.TP
\fBallow-debuggers
Allow tools such as strace and gdb inside the sandbox by whitelisting system calls ptrace and process_vm_readv.

#ifdef HAVE_DBUSPROXY
.SH DBus filtering

Access to the session and system DBus UNIX sockets can be allowed, filtered or
disabled. To disable the abstract sockets (and force applications to use the
filtered UNIX socket) you would need to request a new network namespace using
\-\-net command. Another option is to remove unix from the \-\-protocol set.
.br

.br
Filtering requires installing the xdg-dbus-proxy utility. Filter rules can be
specified for well-known DBus names, but they are also propagated to the owning
unique name, too. The permissions are "sticky" and are kept even if the
corresponding well-known name is released (however, applications rarely release
well-known names in practice). Names may have a .* suffix to match all names
underneath them, including themselves (e.g. "foo.bar.*" matches "foo.bar",
"foo.bar.baz" and "foo.bar.baz.quux", but not "foobar"). For more information,
see xdg-dbus-proxy(1).

.SH Resource limits, CPU affinity
These profile entries define the limits on system resources (rlimits) for the processes inside the sandbox.
The limits can be modified inside the sandbox using the regular \fBulimit\fR command. \fBcpu\fR command
configures the CPU cores available.

Examples:

.TP
\fBcpu 0,1,2
Use only CPU cores 0, 1 and 2.

IPC namespace is enabled by default for sandboxes started as root.
.br

.br
Note: This only affects the IPC resources that are mentioned in
\fBipc_namespaces\fR(7).
It does not affect other IPC resources, such as Unix sockets (see
\fBunix\fR(7)).

#ifdef HAVE_NETWORK
.SH Networking
Networking features available in profile files.

.TP
\fBdefaultgw address
Use this address as default gateway in the new network namespace.

.TP
\fBdns address
Set a DNS server for the sandbox. Up to three DNS servers can be defined.

.TP
\fBhostname name
Set a hostname for the sandbox.

.TP
\fBhosts-file file
Use file as /etc/hosts.

.TP
\fBip address
Assign IP addresses to the last network interface defined by a net command. A
default gateway is assigned by default.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
net eth0
.br
ip 10.10.20.56

.TP
\fBip dhcp
Acquire an IP address and default gateway for the last interface defined by a
net command, as well as set the DNS servers according to the DHCP response.
This command requires the ISC dhclient DHCP client to be installed and will start
it automatically inside the sandbox.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
net br0
.br
ip dhcp
.br

.br
This command should not be used in conjunction with the dns command if the
DHCP server is set to configure DNS servers for the clients, because the
manually specified DNS servers will be overwritten.

.br
The DHCP client will NOT release the DHCP lease when the sandbox terminates.
If your DHCP server requires leases to be explicitly released, consider running
a DHCP client and releasing the lease manually in conjunction with the
net none command.

.TP
\fBip none
No IP address and no default gateway are configured for the last interface
defined by a net command. Use this option
in case you intend to start an external DHCP client in the sandbox.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
net eth0
.br
ip none

.TP
\fBip6 address
Assign IPv6 addresses to the last network interface defined by a net command.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
net eth0
.br
ip6 2001:0db8:0:f101::1/64

.TP
\fBip6 dhcp
Acquire an IPv6 address and default gateway for the last interface defined by a
net command, as well as set the DNS servers according to the DHCP response.
This command requires the ISC dhclient DHCP client to be installed and will start
it automatically inside the sandbox.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
net br0
.br
ip6 dhcp
.br

.br
This command should not be used in conjunction with the dns command if the
DHCP server is set to configure DNS servers for the clients, because the
manually specified DNS servers will be overwritten.

.br
The DHCP client will NOT release the DHCP lease when the sandbox terminates.
If your DHCP server requires leases to be explicitly released, consider running
a DHCP client and releasing the lease manually.

.TP
\fBiprange address,address
Assign an IP address in the provided range to the last network
interface defined by a net command.  A default gateway is assigned by default.
.br

.br
Example:
.br

.br
net eth0
.br
iprange 192.168.1.150,192.168.1.160
.br

.TP
\fBmtu number
Assign a MTU value to the last network interface defined by a net command.

.TP
\fBnet bridge_interface
Enable a new network namespace and connect it to this bridge interface.
Unless specified with option \-\-ip and \-\-defaultgw, an IP address and a default gateway will be assigned
automatically to the sandbox. The IP address is verified using ARP before assignment. The address
configured as default gateway is the bridge device IP address. Up to four \-\-net
bridge devices can be defined. Mixing bridge and macvlan devices is allowed.

.TP
\fBnet ethernet_interface|wireless_interface
Enable a new network namespace and connect it
to this ethernet interface using the standard Linux macvlan or ipvlan
driver. Unless specified with option \-\-ip and \-\-defaultgw, an
IP address and a default gateway will be assigned automatically
to the sandbox. The IP address is verified using ARP before
assignment. The address configured as default gateway is the
default gateway of the host. Up to four \-\-net devices can
be defined. Mixing bridge and macvlan devices is allowed.

.TP
\fBnet none
Enable a new, unconnected network namespace. The only interface
available in the new namespace is a new loopback interface (lo).
Use this option to deny network access to programs that don't
really need network access.

.TP
\fBnet tap_interface
Enable a new network namespace and connect it
to this ethernet tap interface using the standard Linux macvlan
driver.  If the tap interface is not configured, the sandbox
will not try to configure the interface inside the sandbox.
Please use ip, netmask and defaultgw to specify the configuration.

.TP
\fBnetfilter
If a new network namespace is created, enabled default network filter.

.TP
\fBnetfilter filename
If a new network namespace is created, enabled the network filter in filename.
